To my Father
Abandoned is what they label me as.
Abandoned is what you made me.
I felt you missing, you were the hole in my heart, you never filled it
so now it's dark.
I cry sometimes because you weren't there.
I scream sometimes because you never tried to be.
It seems like you're running away from me,
Time goes by and there's no word,
I'm used to you're voice being unheard.
I travel through life wondering where you are, and why you aren't here to see the goodness in my heart.
I am the daughter you never saw grow,
I am the daughter that has your smile and your eyes, i am the daughter whose life you left behind.
Abandoned is what they label me as.
Abandoned is what you made me.
Abandoned is what I'll never claim to be.
Abandoned is what you made me.
I felt you missing, you were the hole in my heart, you never filled it
so now it's dark.
I cry sometimes because you weren't there.
I scream sometimes because you never tried to be.
It seems like you're running away from me,
Time goes by and there's no word,
I'm used to you're voice being unheard.
I travel through life wondering where you are, and why you aren't here to see the goodness in my heart.
I am the daughter you never saw grow,
I am the daughter that has your smile and your eyes, i am the daughter whose life you left behind.
Abandoned is what they label me as.
Abandoned is what you made me.
Abandoned is what I'll never claim to be.
